Hi Rachael, congrats on the 10th anniversary of your first feel good fiction book. It certainly looks great with the new cover and epilogue. Certainly a great thing to rerelease books for newer fans of yours who missed out the first time and cannot find a copy in the wild. I have finally read The Other Bridget and The Bad Bridesmaid and yes both excellent books - thank you! Yes even blokes can admire a great book or two as I am proof haha. The Other Bridget is worthy of a sequel or spinoff thus The Bad Bridesmaid. The Other Bridget had great characters and the different books and authors mentioned felt like great easter eggs. Who knows if Bridget had a book or two she recommended to someone that you may have read and enjoyed (Boy Swallows Universe is one of those). The Bad Bridesmaid felt more like a spinoff and did not disappoint. Edgar and Daisy feel like they need their own book to complete the trilogy haha. Cheers!

Hi Cameron - thanks for your lovely comment and yes, I do have a few blokes reading my books! I definitely have read many of the books Bridget recommended :) I kinda think Edgar and Daisy deserve a story too! x

I love re-reading my extremely tattered copy 'original cover' of Patterson Girls. Your original book title "Patterson's Curse" would have to be the one and only time the noxious weed has ever been spoken of in glowing terms. I can't wait to read what the crew have been up to. Thank you for the opportunity to go in the draw.
